THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON. HUSTON WILL QunT ‘Party Leaders Prepare to Meet Here July 7 at His Call. Talk of whether Claudius Huston soon may resign as chairman of the Repub- lican national committee was renewed toaky as party leaders prepared to meet here on July 7. The conference was called by Huston, | ¥ho said there were some “matters of importance concerning the forthcoming campaign” on which he wanted the *“advice and counsel” of the Republican chieftains. Meanwhile speculation turned to Hus- ton’s successor. in the event of his resig- nation, with the rame of Senator Fess of Ohio frequently mentioned. Other names entering the discussion were | those of Postmaster General Brown, Walter Head. a Chicago banker, and ‘Walter H. Newton, one of President Hoover's secretaries. | ¥he President recently has been scan- ning a list of men available for the party chairmanship, and the belief has begn general that Huston's resignation would be presented soon However, if he has such an intention, | he has given no indication of it. He has denied he would quit aud a few | Weeks ago he sent a letter to all mem- bers of the national committee defend- ing himself against the charges which have been raised against him. These arose from thz Senate lobby | committee’s investigation of organiza- | tions interested in Muscle Shoals legis- | lation. Testimony was received that| Huston _collected $36.000 from the Union Carbide Co. for the Tennessee River Improvement Association, of which he was president at the time. | -and deposited the money in his mar- ginal account. In particular, these disclosures aroused the displeasure of the young Republi- can faction of the Senate, a group elosely associated with President Hoover. The conference of July 7 is to be at- tended by the officers of the national committee and the chairmen of the senatorial and congressional campaign committees, Senator Moses of New Hampshire and Representative Wood of Indiana.

REPORT IS REVIVED DELAYS: CALLING UP: CONTIVUNG PLAN Simmons, After Conference, Delays Presentation of Res- oluton Indefinitely. ___(Continued From First Page.) posing a $10,000,000 lump sum, but ‘the House group refused the offer. Senator Fess, Republican of Ohio, | said he sympathized with the views of Senator Jones, but wanted to know what would be the District's financial situation if neither the bill or a con- tinuing resolution is passed. “If we pass no joint resolution and no appropriation bill, the activities of the District will stop,” Senator Jones replied. “But why depend upon a joint resolution when a legislative act taking care of all the activities of the District is now pending before a conference committee and depending for its enact- ment only upon slight mutual conces- sions?” After further questions had been asked along this line, Senator Jones made this declaration: “In my judgment, whatever may grow out of the situation, the entire respon- bility will rest upon another body. ur conferees are willing to make great concessions from the Senate’s position.” Senator Jones asserted that the ques- tion has reached a point where ‘“we must determine whether the Senate of the United States has any right in a legislative matter of this kind.” “1 have been told,” said Senator Jons by our conferees, of what I think is really, to say the least, a dis- respectful attitude toward them by the House conferees. Possibly, however, I ought not to go that far, though I could go further, I think, with entire justifi- cation.” Would Block Adjournment. It was at this point in the debate that’ the suggestion of blocking an adjourn- ment of Congress until the House agrees to some settlement of the District bill was broached by Senator Glass, Demo- crat, of Virginia, and one of the Senate conferees. “Let me suggest to the Senator from Ohio that we have got to stay here any- way,” said Senator Glass. “There is no trouble about making some others give us the pleasure of their company. ‘The Senate has got to stay here to con- sider the London naval treaty, so we are told. Let others stay here, too.” It has been expected that the regular session of Congress would end about the middle of next week, but the adjourn- ment resolution requires action by the Senate as well as the House. Without an agreement to adjourn, the House could only recess for three-day periods Senator McKellar, Democrat, of Ten- nessee, followed up the suggestion of Senator Giass by saying: “If we just give notice to the other body that we are not going to adjourn until this very necessary bill shall be passed, there will s00n be an agreement.” “Of course, we certainly shall not ad- journ until something shall be done to settle the matter with reference to the Disirict. That settlement should be & just one,” Senator Jones replied. Half-way Meeting Place. Senator Bingham, in emphasizing the willingness of the Senators to meet the House on some middle ground, said: “Normally, as everybody knows, on bills of this kind conferees meet about half way. The amount in that case would be $10,500,000; but in order that the Senate conferees might not be ac- cused of standing in the way of secur- ing a proper bill for the District, at the last meeting of the conferees they | unanimously suggested their willingness to meet the House two-thirds of the way and to come down to $10,000,000. The House conferees, however, indi- cated their unwillingness to come up 1 cent above the $9,000,000. “That is the situation. There is & question of judgment between two amounts. The Senate conferees are willing, and have been willing all along, 1o effect a reasonable compromise. The House conferees have not felt that the request of the Senate for & reasonable compromise was worth listening to.” Senator Dill, Democrat, of Washing- ton, seeking light as to the theory on which the Federal contribution to the District is based, said: “It is generally understood in the States and cities that the amount of money the Government spends is raised by taxation of property and of what might be called privileges, or it may be excise tax. Of course, the Govern- ment does not pay any etaxes in the District of Columbia, and. as I under- stand, the position of the other body is that the amount which the Govern- ment should contribute is a fixed amount and should not be increased, regardless of increased costs and in- creased activities of the District gov- ernment. I wonder if that is the theory or whether there is some other theory with which I am not familiar.” Finding of Commission. Replying to Senator Dill's question, ator Jones said: T am not a member of the confer- ence committee, and so I am not pre- pared to say what the reasoning of the House conferees is. I will say that a commission, composed of members of +&mith’s Transfer & Storage Co., 1313 You St. North 3343.
